  Anatomy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
From a utilitarian point of view the study of humans is the most important division of special anatomy, and this human anatomy may be approached from different points of view.
So intricate is the human body that only a small number of professional human anatomists, after years of patient observation, are masters of its details; most of them specialize on certain parts, such as the brain or viscera, contenting themselves with a good working knowledge of the rest.
From the morphological point of view, however, human anatomy is a scientific and fascinating study, having for its object the discovery of the causes which have brought about the existing structure of humans, and needing a knowledge of the allied sciences of embryology or developmental biology, phylogeny, and histology.

 Human Histology for Amateur Microscopists
Human histology, or microscopic anatomy of human tissue, is a fascinating topic.
Except for human blood smears, the amateur microscopist's study of human histology is therefore "limited" to already prepared, permanent slides.
For instance, looking at a histology slide of healthy nonpigmented, human skin (slide number 31-4522 from histopathology of disease set 31-6986 [3]), we find at moderate magnification (objective 10x) many cells close to each other with little extracellular material between them.
